Pr ingeshenry sails amid Roosevelt illness tension
Berlin February twelfth reports Prince Henry of Prussia will sail to the United States Saturday despite Theodore Roosevelt Jr’s continuing illness. Emperor Wilhelm and Prince Henry sent messages to the President as the prince hoped for Roosevelt’s recovery. The first instinct was to delay the trip but a decision to proceed was reached amid the railroad lobby war. In Alliance, Ohio a three-block fire destroyed the People’s Theater and Presbyterian Church buildings with losses estimated at fifty six thousand dollars. In Manchester, New Hampshire James Faveny, fifty, killed himself after failing to find work.
